The next time you use your mobile phone, try not to take it for granted like so many have grown accustomed to doing. Of course, such reactions are entirely understandable these days considering how tightly integrated they have become in our daily routines and schedules – we wake up to cell phone alarms, arrive at work with text messages made on the way to coordinate, get reminded of what upcoming meetings there are and of what documents we’re supposed to bring thanks to calendar notes, and head home with more text messages exchanged and with mobile music playing in our ears. We make calls, take calls, and update the people who matter to us and more, to an extent that has – thanks to technology – approached that of our own thinking.
